We used it in our home remodel 4 years ago and are getting ready to
install it in a new house we are building. My wife and I love the stuff.
It has held up well so far . . . I disagree that it is expensive. If you
search the net, you can find it cheap . . . approximately $2.50 per
square foot, finished.

I agree.

We installed it in a relative's den. It's nice, but I think it's
overpriced. Black and Decker uses bamboo for current model Workmate
tops, as it's cheap overseas. Here in the states, bamboo is priced like
oak, without the durability.
